Hexis have introduced a new high tack vinyl film that will stick to hard to adhere to substrates such as trashcans, garbage bins or other non-polar plastics.
The 2 new inkjet printable products are the VCR3000WG1, a 100μm gloss white intermediate PVC with a special high tack clear permanent solvent-based adhesive on a 145g/m² PE-coated liner with an outdoor durability of up to 4 years and the VCR200WG1, a 70μm gloss white high performance PVC with a special high tack clear permanent solvent-based adhesive also on a 145g/m² PE-coated liner and with an outdoor durability of up to 8 years.The two products are available in rolls of 1370mm or 1600mm wide by 45m, 100m or 200m long and are suitable for solvent and eco-solvent inkjet printers.
The Hexis laboratory have created a media with a heavier coat weight of adhesive in order to allow the product to be more aggressive on hard to adhere surfaces (low energy surfaces), such as Polyethylene (PE), Polypropylene (PP), Polycarbonate (PC) and Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS). Things like trash bins, canoes, motorcycle fairings can all now have graphics put onto them.
